Power control algorithm in full duplex communications

Abstract

The full duplex (FD) communication means that transmits and receives data simultaneously in the same frequency. Due to this, the FD communication is more affected by interference. In the FD communication, transmission signal of node might be interference to other nodes. If the distance between the nodes is not far enough, the FD communication is impossible. Therefore, we propose the power control algorithm for the FD communication. If the distance between the nodes is close, the transmission power should be controlled to reduce interference. To evaluate our proposed algorithm, we conduct simulation. The results show that the throughput of proposed algorithm is higher than conventional algorithm and power consumption of proposed algorithm is lower than conventional algorithm.
